The Unexamined Life

In my opinion the unexamined life is not worth living for. One has to ask one self what their purpose is or if anything is going wrong in their life. An unexamined life is basically a lost life, a life without purpose.
         An unexamined life is a life that has not been considered for. A life without a purpose. A life with absolutely nothing to strive for. If one actually stops and examines one self life then they can take into consideration everything surrounding them. They can see what is wrong with them therefore they might strive to fix it and actually having a goal. A life without a purpose is not a life at all.
       Therefore one has to stop and ask one self “What am I doing here?” One needs to reflect what one is trying to achieve or obtain. Giving oneself an actual purpose. When one has a purpose then they start living their life. And this life can lead to multiple events. In the other hand an unexamined life has no future.
         An unexamined life can also mean that someone does not care and just lives the way they want to. In other words they live according to their own rules. When people live by their own rules they start offending or disrespecting others. And no one wants to live in alienation because they have been shunned by everyone around them. Therefore that is why the unexamined life is not worth living for. Because it has absolutely no purpose and lives lost.
